Image.dll v.1.0.0.7

Fixed Skew. I use different approach to skew images. This is more like it...

The result image has always a transparent background.

Great work so far dude, it would be handy if on the shape functions rather than having X,Y,Width and Height to set the shape dimentions having Ax,Ay for the top left corner and Bx,By for the bottom right. I say this because it takes an extra few calculations to convert between a grid system and one that uses width and height and those calcs are probably a lot quicker in straight C++ than in AMS.
Ive tried using your dll to super-impose a rectangle on a picture to define an area to be cropped. A new rectagle is drawn every time the user moves the mouse and it works quite well. The movement is slightly jerky and having less to calculate each time in AMS would help slightly.

I thought x, y, width, height was more straight forward than x, y, bottom right. I still don't understand what calculations these should be that take so long?

Are you trying to perform a series of actions in one time (in a loop or timer)?

Ive modified my code a bit and the action is much smoother now. :yes

Im using your rectangle function to make a marquee select on a picture to define an area to be cropped so the rectangle is calculated by fixing the top left or bottom right and having the oposite corner set itself to the mouse pointer position (reletive to the positon of the pic on the page). So i get a X and Y value returned from the GetMousePositon function which i then have to convert to Width and height.

-- calcs the rectangle height and width (s for shape)
function CalcRectangleDimentions() 
sWidth  = sBx - sAx;
sHeight = sBy - sAy;  
end

I can see how width and height are much easier for someone to visualise in relation to the shape thats being plotted. I guess its just personal prefference

Ok im having some real problems using this DLL, but im not sure whats causing error, its most likley a problem with my computer as Ive been using it in my latest project (animation editor/sprite designer) for over a month and everything has been working great.Ive made use of practically all the avilable functions :yes. But then a few days ago it stopped working? Ive been going through my code to work out what the problem was and i havent got a clue. I checked my backups and they dont work. So i downloaded the latest version v1.0.0.8 and to my suprise that didnt work either . The only difference was that this time i got an error message saying 'error the file exists'. Ive done a full re-install of AMS and there is no difference.
Im totaly at a loss as to what the problem could be..
